Hey car manufacturers- ya ever hear of a wind tunnel? Ever use one? I doubt it, otherwise you would have engineered out those two Prince Charles ear-a-chutes you stick on every car and truck being sold today.
Why not just mount a reflective sheet of plywood on each and every car? I can see why circa 1945 you'd take the bathroom mirror and bolt it on the side of a car and call it a marvel, but any summer intern could have tweaked out the side mirrors at any point since the first time Japan started kicking US car ass.
I'm not one of those buffs that believes the auto industry is hiding the secrets to some marvel technology that gets 90 mpg. I do however like to point out the obvious dumbass mistakes made by people in high places.
Fuel cell technology- billions.
Door redesign- 500k.
Even a Gregoire math student can solve that one.
Please don't remove the mirrors though until AFTER I sell my Haliburton stock.
